Jennifer Sutcliffe and her husband were doing yard work the weekend of May 27 near Lake Corpus Christi when she spotted the snake. Her husband severed its head with a tool, but when he bent down to throw it away, the snake's head bit him, the station reported.
quote:
A normal person who is going to get bit is going to get two to four doses of antivenom," Sutcliffe told the station. "He had to have 26 doses."
Nope nope nope

You know, at the right place right time some a-hole would call for him to be fined for killing it. It's illegal in Texas.

There is some evidence that humans can live a bit with their heads cutoff. It’s not as immediate as we usually think. There are stories during the French Revolution of guillotined people sticking their toungues out at people and of others of smiling. There were several scientists working on it in the early 20th century when France stopped executing people with the guillotine.
So, yeah, I can understand why the snake might have been alive enough to be pissed and take a bite

A snake's head will live for an hour or so after being killed.
I bet the other part was still moving around too.

I've always said "rattlesnakes and rubbers"
Rolls off the tongue easier, but to each his own.

That's why you own a shovel.

The one in the middle doesn't look dead enough

In warm-blooded animals, our high metabolisms are a significant disadvantage when being decapitated. Just a few minutes without oxygen and a mammal's brain is caput—the result of a massive cascading cellular die-off. Not so with cold-blooded reptiles. Their slow metabolism sustains their internal organs for far longer than a mammals causing them to completely die far more slowly. Essentially, cutting off their heads only makes them mostly dead.

That's a ton of good meat there.

That is impressive. And looks delicious.

Yeah he might be playing possum. Gonna spin around and bite that dude in the dick.

How do you get close enough to a venomous snake without getting bitten to have enough force to kill it with a shovel or the like? Seems like you're within the range to be bit at that point, unless you're overhand axing it, but seems like it'd be easy to lose the shovel and the downward motion puts you in range, yet again if you miss

True or some of those trach picker-upper tongs. Seriously thogh, who the frick would pick up any part of a rattlesnake severed or not that still had fangs in it except a Darwin Award Candidate .

Sever the head and the body will die is the saying. At least that’s what Greg Williams taught me
